KATIE
BURKARD
katie@bluliving.comHello, I am Katie and I am the co-founder of Vancitylofts, BluLiving and a Vancouver real estate and lifestyle specialist. Please click on my profile to find out a little more about me.
SHAWN
LEE
shawn@bluliving.comHello, my name is Shawn. Some people call me Juan when I travel, but I'm totally fine with that. My hobbies include exploring destinations where they cannot pronounce my name, sampling delicious yummy food made with love, and looking for trouble around the next corner. I guess you could call me a bit of a hedonist, but most of my friends know that. Something most people don't know about me is that I have a memory like a goldfish - thank goodness for my shutterbug wife! My best friend is without a doubt my dog Lenny - he laughs at all my jokes and makes me feel tall. When I was younger I always wanted to be able to grow a mustache. Now, I can grow one in less than 3 hours. One last fact is that I have a hard time going through the day without having a good laugh...
NINA
MARGIOTTIELLO
nina@bluliving.comMy name is Nina but most people call me Neens. You can call me that too if you want. My hobbies include feeling sand in my toes, getting on a plane, reading, interior design and food. I like food a lot, but most people know that. Something most people don't know about me is that I lived in Italy for nine years. In my family there is my hubby Darcy and my mini-me Vanessa. When I was younger I always wanted to be a flight attendant or a teacher. I've done both. One last fact is that I love old school cars and motorbikes, I'm a little obsessed.
TRACY
UCHIDA
tracy@bluliving.comMy name is Tracy, but some people call me Greta (not really, but I’ve always liked that name). My hobbies include cooking with bacon, keeping orchids alive and perfecting Donna Hay’s chocolate layer cake. Something most people don’t know about me, I collect old cameras, I see the world in snap shots and I can’t help counting stairs as I go down them. In my family there is my hubby Neal and our sweet little boy Caine. When I was younger I wanted to open a Jazz Bar. One last fact is I rarely leave the house these days without banana, kale or crackers stuck to my clothing and I wouldn’t have it any other way…

LENNY
THE OFFICE DOG
lenny@bluliving.comMy name is Lenny, but some people call Mr. Lenners or by my real name Leonard. My hobbies include chasing squirrels, hording pinecones, and sticking my head out of the window of moving vehicles. Something most people don't know about me is that I am almost 80 years old in human years. When I was younger I always wanted to live on a ranch, but now I have grown to like the city. -

Our Philosophy
In real estate, if you try to be all things to all people, you’ll be remembered for nothing.
When you try to cater to all people, your appeal is wide, but not very compelling. When you focus on a specific product (known in real estate as a market segment), you enhance your expertise and are able to provide the highest caliber service to your valuable clients. The idea of limiting your business is contrary to the norm — REALTORS® are renowned for their attempts to generate business anywhere and everywhere possible.
At Blu, our philosophy is about taking a progressive view to real estate marketing. One that recognizes the fact that those who specialize make a much more compelling argument for why anyone would work with them, and in turn, are much more productive and successful.
We have structured our team to provide our clients exactly that – specific market knowledge. Each of our REALTORS® specializes in a particular market segment. By sharing their knowledge of that segment with each other, we can provide our clients with industry knowledge unparalleled from other agents.We combine this knowledge with our niche websites, add in a young, fun, and exciting team atmosphere, and the result is a group of professionals that are raising the bar within the industry – BLU.

Blu Xmas outing 2011, it was pretty AWESOME! We took over the Cypress Tube Park and tubed the evening away into the sunset. Wicked ride in the Phat Cat's Lil Pimp. No one got on the stripper pole...well we wouldn't tell you if someone did. What's happens in the Lil Pimp stays in the Lil Pimp. That's how we do it at BLU. Happy Holidays!
